Hole 17 – Church

White Tees PAR 4 YARDS 361 SI 8

Red Tees PAR 4 YARDS 285 SI 12

Hole 18 – Home

White Tees PAR 4 YARDS 284 SI 18

Red Tees PAR 4 YARDS 273 SI 10

The last hole is a reachable par 4, with a valley running across the fairway about 50 yards short of the green. Trouble is down the left from the tee shot, and the hole can be played in two ways, either a long iron off the tee then a wedge into the green, or a driver off the tee to get near the green. Bunkers await short right, left and right of the green, which is the trickiest to read on the course.
